You're supposed to salvage all the socketed gear you find to add sockets to the stuff you do use and cover resist gaps with runes
What, the +12 shit gems that drop? Is that supposed to help me to get to cap? After farming 10 sockets? Yeah that helps but its not the crafting bench. I hope they scale up to like +25 or +30 later.

For those struggling, this is pretty much how it feels right now:

I'd knock all of cruel down to about 10-15%. The whole thing is a jogging simulator as you go from zone to zone only deviating from the main path to pick up the permanent boosts. Anything else is just a massive waste of time when you could just be getting to maps sooner.

Thanks for the quick borrow of a 2handed mace, used it to kill that fire bitch and then dropped one even better like 5 mins later, lol. Threw it back in the stash for the next person that needs it.

I was scared to lose my sockets but my old ass weapon was like 300 dps lower than the new one even without any sockets, such a huge difference.

How does the 3rd Ascendency work?

3 floors Sanctum and/or 7 Ultimatum? Some said 10 Ultmatum but that should be for the 4th right?

Was just about to ask the same thing. I've heard it needs to be level 65 for the 3rd one, but haven't seen anyone confirm it 100%.

Finished campaign today and did a few Maps.

And yea all the difficulties was basically end of Act 1 and half of Act 2. Then the build gets online and I killed 90% of the Bosses in under 10 seconds.

Probably need quite a bit of tuning or maybe the rest of the campaign fixes some cheezing.

Best ARPG since D2.

I have not eaten dinner in two days. Get home from work at 4pm and played until 11pm and go to bed. Thinking if the game all day at work and do the same thing over again.

And this is with an unfinished game with half the content missing.

Looking forward to many an hours in this game and looking forward to all the new content.

I can't imagine someone going in brand new and blind and using the suggested support gems, that would not be so good.

they’re pretty bad

my only real complaint is campaign lenth for multiple play throughs and the ascendancy trials which i really hope are placeholders

We've had people reroll several times already and with one twink weapon and knowledge of what to do, you cut your Act 1-3 from like 12-24 hours into 3-6 pretty quick. Then Cruel lasts another 3-6. If you're twinked out it should be a 6ish hour run if you remember where the fuck to go and check for mandatory quests vs optional bosses. They checkpoint TP change will also make it a lot faster.

So for a caster, if I am using a Staff, do the runes add damage to spells? Example Cold damage.

Man just getting unlucky with drops around 50. I constantly refresh the vendor, pick up everything I find base wise, and use my transmute and augs and nothing.

Reduced Attribute Reqs is another stat that can die in a fiery hell. These boobie prize stats are starting to piss me off.
